*1. Introduction*
*****************
Welcome to my FAQ/Walkthrough for Metal Gear. The Original
Metal Gear
2: Solid Snake FAQ/Walkthrough. I decided to write this guide
because
it's an AWESOME part of one of the best gaming series EVER, and
because
no one has written a detailed guide for this game yet and
someone
requested it. Other games I recommend playing either before or
after
this game are Metal Gear 2: Solid Snake (MSX Computer), Snake's
Revenge
(NES), Metal Gear Solid(PSX and PC), Metal Gear Solid: VR
Missions(PSX), Metal Gear: Ghost Babel(GBC), Metal Gear Solid
2: Sons
of Liberty(PS2), Metal Gear Solid 2: Substance(PS2, PC, and X-
Box), and
coming soon Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater(PS2).

KEY: Here is a little key that tells you what my symbols mean.
+++NAME OF PLACE+++: New location
---NAME OF EQUIPMENT---: New Equipment
===NAME OF WEAPON===: New Weapon
==-NAME OF AMMO-==: New Ammo
I will only put symbols around new
equipment/locations/weapons/ammo. If
I mention it more than once it will only be in caps.
Here you'll see two cameras in this room. One on the west wall
and one
on the north side of the square in the middle of the room.
Sneak pas
the cameras and head down on the far right wall. Avoid the two
guards
in this area and go in the open door on the left. In here you
will find
the AMMO. Use (F3) CARD 1 to enter the door on the south wall.
In here,
you will find a POW tied to a chair. Go over to him to release
him. Now
use (F3) CARD 1 to OPEN the door on the east wall. Now equip
(F3) your
GAS MASK and enter the room. You will now receive a call (F4)
from Big
Boss. He will tell you to put on your GAS MASK in the gas room
(I guess
he's a little late on that one, huh). Make it through the gas
room and
use CARD 1 to enter the door in the southeast corner of the
room. In
this room, take out the guard by punching him when he comes to
you.
Then avoid the camera and use (F3) CARD 1 to enter the door on
the
southwest part of the room. In this room, you will find another
POW. He
will tell you that another FOX-HOUNDER infiltrated Outer Heaven
a few
days ago and was captured by the enemy. Exit the room and head
east. On
this screen, you will see an open door, enter it. In here you
will find
a rolling pin rolling across the room and a ===PLASTIC
EXPLOSIVE===.
Wait for the rolling pin to go to your right, and run and grab
the
PLASTIC EXPLOSIVES and hide in the slot on the left side of the
room.
When you get the chance, run back to the entrance of the room.
Now wait
for the rolling pin to go to your left, and run through the
open door
on the right side of the room. Sneak past the guard on this
screen and
proceed right. On this screen, two guards will come down from
the slots
on the north part of the room. Take them out by punching and
proceed to
the next screen. On this screen you will see a guard, two
cameras, and
two doors, one on the north wall and one in the southeast part
of the
room. Avoid the cameras and use (F3) CARD 1 to enter the door
in the
southeast part of the room. In here, go to the desk and grab
CARD 2.
Exit the room and use (F3) CARD 2 to enter the door on the
north wall.
In here you will find RATIONS. Exit the room and head back to
the room
after the gas room. In this room, take out the guard and avoid
the
camera again. Use (F3) CARD 2 to enter the door in the
northwest corner
of the room. In here you will find ===REMOTE-CONTROLLED
MISSLES===.
Exit the room and head back to the screen with two cameras, a
guard,
and two door (the southeastern most screen on the floor). From
here,
head up to the next screen. Here you will see a flashing white
floor
and a control box on the other side of the room. Big Boss will
call
(F4) you and tell you to use your REMOTE-CONTROLLED MISSLES on
the
power box to turn off the high-voltage. Use (F2) your REMOTE-
CONTROLLED
MISSLES to destroy the control box. That will turn off the
electric
floor and allow you to cross it to the next screen.
On this screen there will be two guards and a door on the east
wall.
Take out the guard walking east and use (F3) CARD 1 to enter
the door.
In the room you will find the third POW. Rescue him and he will
tell
you that resistance member Diane will help you on frequency
120.33.
Make a note of that and exit the room. Head north to the next
screen.
On this screen you will see an elevator guarded by two guards
from a
distance. Ignore it for now and head west. On this screen, you
will see
three guards patrolling the area. As long as you stay lined up
with the
wall, they won't see you. Take out the two guards that approach
you by
punching them. Now you'll want to enter the door no the north
side of
the room. Wait until the guard on the west dies of the room is
moving
towards the south and use (F3) CARD 2 to enter the room. In the
room
you will find the ---CARDBOARD BOX---. Now exit the room. When
you come
out of the room, there will be two guards on this screen, the
guard in
the south part of the room and the guard in the west part of
the room.
Take out both guards and use (F3) CARD 2 to enter the door.
Once in
this room, you will need to quickly move to the south wall and
use (F3)
CARD 2 to enter the room. In here you will find four trigger
happy
guards just waiting to kill you. I like to call them Ultra Box
(if
you've played Metal Gear 2: Solid Snake, you'll know what I'm
talking
about). Take them out, one shot a piece and pick up the
===SILENCER===
that appears after you kill them. Now that you have the
SILENCER you
may use your gun without the guards hearing it. Use (F3) CARD 1
to
enter the room on the east wall. In here you will find the
===GRENADE
LAUNCHER===. Exit the rooms and head west. You will notice that
you are
back by the elevator that you entered the floor at. Watch out
for the
camera and head south down the right path. Use (f3) CARD 2 to
open the
door here and rescue the fourth POW. Exit the room and head
back to the
elevator guarded by two guards from a distance. Take out the
two guards
and use (F3) CARD 2 to enter the elevator. Take the elevator
down to
the second floor.
When you exit the elevator, you will see two cameras. Both are
fairly
close together on the left side of the room. Use the crates to
avoid
the camera and head down to the next screen. On this screen,
you will
see a guard wandering around. Wait until he falls asleep, kill
him, and
head south once again. On this screen you will see peach
colored walls
with gray lines on them. These are laser traps. Unlike Metal
Gear
Solid, your ---CIGARETTES--- won't detect the lasers. Since you
currently have nothing to get through the laser traps, I'll do
my best
to give you directions on how to avoid the lasers. From the top
center
of the screen, head down until you hit a wall. Then turn right
until
you hit a wall. Then go down to the next screen. This screen it
similar
to the last, but there is a room you need to enter at the top
of the
screen. From the entrance of the screen, go down. As you
proceed down,
count the number of laser trap walls you see. When you reach
the second
and third ones, go between them. Now go down until you hit a
wall and
then go right until pass three laser walls. Now go up past two
laser
walls. Now you go right until you are standing in front of the
door.
Use (F3) CARD 1 to enter the room. In here you will find the
fifth POW.
Rescue him and you will notice that your star rank is now up to
two
stars. Your star rank will move up with every five POWs that
you
rescue. If you kill a POW, your rank will decrease by one. You
can now
carry more equipment and AMMO. Check the Ammo/Equipment Chart
in the
Weapons/Ammo/Equipment section to find out exactly how much you
can
carry at your current rank. Exit the room and head back through
the
laser traps until you come to the screen with the sleeping
guard. Take
him out again and head up the left path. Go left again on the
next
screen and you will come to a screen with three guards. Watch
their
walking pattern and take them out one at a time. Then down the
path on
the southwest part of the room. On this screen you will see a
security
camera two open door. Avoid the camera and head in the door on
the
right to find AMMO. Exit that room and enter the room on the
left to
find PLASTIC EXPLOSIVES. Exit the room and head back to the
elevator.
Take the elevator to the first floor. When you exit the
elevator you
will see two guards patrolling around three tanks. Take them
out and
head south. On this screen you will see three cameras. Two on
the right
wall and one on the left. Use the crates to avoid the cameras
and use
(F3) CARD 2 to enter the room on the left. In here you will
find the
sixth POW. Rescue him and he will tell you that a FOX-HOUNDER
named
Grey Fox is confined in a secret cell. Exit the room and head
south.
When you enter the next screen, DON'T MOVE! Two guards will be
patrolling the area and if you move, the one on the right can
see you.
Take out the guard on the left, then the one on the right when
he's not
looking. Use (F3) CARD 2 to enter the door on the right. Inside
you
will find a ===SUB MACHINE GUN===. Exit the room and use (F3)
CARD 1 to
enter the door on the left. Inside you will find the seventh
POW. He
will tell you that the best way to gain access to the secret
cell is to
allow yourself to be captured. Exit the room and head south. On
this
screen, you will be behind two tanks and two guards will be
patrolling
the area. Take them out and head left. As you proceed through
the next
screen, a guard will come behind you and say "DON'T MOVE".
Another
guard will then come and tell you that you are captured. The
screen
will then fade to black as Snake is captured...
With Snake captured and taken to the secret cell its time to
figure out
a way to rescue Grey Fox. Big Boss will call (F4) you and tell
you to
move out and locate Grey Fox's solitary cell. He suggest to you
that
you punch the walls to get out. End the call and punch on north
part of
the west wall until you hear a strange tap. Keep punching on it
to open
up a passageway to the next cell. Proceed into the next cell.
Inside
you will find the missing FOX-HOUND operative, Grey Fox. Rescue
him and
he will tell you that Metal Gear is nuclear armed and that you
must
destroy it before it is completed. He says that Dr. Pettrovich
Madnar,
the designer of Metal Gear, is the only one who knows how to
destroy
it. Punch on the south wall until you hear a strange tap and
keep
punching that spot until the wall breaks. Exit the solitary
cell. You
will find yourself in a sewer looking area. This is the first
floor
basement of BUILDING ONE. You have no equipment and no weapons
so you
must be cautious as you proceed. Head right from here. In this
room the
first boss of the game, Shoot Gunner, will meet you.
*****BOSS FIGHT #1*****
Shoot Gunner
Ok, you must fight this boss on your own with no weapons. Good
luck....
Just kidding:) You didn't think I would make you fight him with
no boss
strategy did ya? If you notice in this room you will see two
doors on
the south wall. Hide behind the crates on the right side of the
room
and call (F4) Big Boss(120.85). He will tell you that your
weapons and
equipment must be in one of those rooms. He will tell you to
break the
door to get in. Break the door on the right by punching it and
you will
get your weapons and equipment back. Exit that room and break
the door
on the left. Enter the room to find ---CARD 3--- and AMMO. Exit
the
room and hide back behind the crates again. Shoot Gunner will
fire a
spray of bullets at you as you move across the room. When your
behind
the crates, equip (F3) your REMOTE-CONTROLLED MISSLES and fire
them at
Shoot Gunner. Three or four hits with it will kill him.
After the battle, check your equipment (F3). You will notice
that you
have a new little item called the ---TRANSMITTER---. The
TRANSMITTER
will alert the guards of your presence as long as you have it
on you.
Press Space Bar on it to get rid of it. Use (F3) CARD 3 to exit
the
room via the door on the east side of the room. This next area
is one
big spiral with guard dogs littered around it. Kill the dog
next to the
door and go north of the door and punch the wall across from
it. You
should hear that strange tapping sound again. Use (F2) a
PLASTIC
EXPLOSIVE to destroy the wall. Head east from here. Watch out
for dogs
on your way. Follow the path until you can go no further. Use
(F2)
another PLASTIC EXPLOSIVE to destroy the wall on the left.
Enter the
passageway and continue along the path. When you reach a wall,
go back
one screen. Punch the south wall until you hear that strange
tapping
sound again. Use (F2) another PLASTIC EXPLOSIVE to blow up that
wall
and follow the path until you reach a door. Use (F3) CARD 3 to
open the
door and enter the room. Inside the room you will find a ---
BOMB BLAST
SUIT--- on the desk. Take it and head back around the spiral
from where
you entered it. When you are back on the screen where you
entered the
spiral, head north. On this screen, tap on the center of the
west wall
until you hear that strange tapping sound once again. Use (F2)
a
PLASTIC EXPLOSIVE to blow it up. Enter the room to find the ---
UNIFORM-
--. Exit the room and head back down. Follow the path around
the
outside of the spiral to the next screen. Tap on the left-
center part
of the south wall until you once again hear that strange
tapping sound.
Use (F2) a PLASTIC EXPLOSIVE to blow it up. Inside you will
find AMMO
and PLASTIC EXPLOSIVES. Exit the room and follow the path
north. Keep
going until you reach an elevator. Take the elevator to the
second
floor.
On the second floor, use the crates to avoid the camera again
and head
south. Take out the sleeping guard and take the left path up.
When you
emerge from the path, you will see the room with the three
guards
again. Take them out and use (F3) CARD 3 to enter the door on
the west
wall. Proceed through this room. In the next room you will see
a
rolling pin. Proceed quickly through this room and exit the
room via
the door on the south wall. In the next area you will see a
bunch of
crates and a single guard behind them. Just easily avoid the
guard and
head south. In this room you will see a large wall in the
middle of the
room and three guards roaming the south part of the room. Take
them out
or avoid them and head south. In this area you will see an open
door to
your left and a closed door to your right. There will also be
two
guards patrolling the south part of the screen. Enter the door
on the
left and you will find MINES on a desk surrounded by three
sleeping
guards. Quietly take out the guards, grab the MINES, and exit
the room.
Avoid the guards and use (F3) CARD 3 to enter the door on the
right.
Inside you will find a POW. Rescue him and he will tell you
that the
only way to reach the courtyard is by parachute. Exit the room,
avoid
the guards, and head south. On the next screen you will see a
blue
colored floor with gray colored floors near the entrance to the
area
and the room in the center of the room. If the guard in this
area sees
you, he will turn on the electric floor. Use the crate to avoid
the
guard or take him out with a REMOTE CONTROLLED MISSLE and use
(F3) CARD
3 to enter the door in the center of and grab the ---INFRARED
GOGGLES--
-. Exit the room and head back to the room with the sleeping
guard.
Take him out and head down. You will now be in the laser trap
area from
earlier. Use (F3) your INFRARED GOGGLES to se where the lasers
are.
Snake through the first screen of lasers to the south and
through the
second screen of lasers and head west. In this area you will
see one
guard patrolling the area and a room in the middle of the area.
Use
(F3) CARD 3 to enter the room in the middle and rescue the POW.
He will
tell you that Dr. Pettrovich is confined to a solitary cell in
the
courtyard. Exit the room and use (F3) CARD 3 to enter the door
on the
left. In here you will find the second boss of the game,
Machine Gun
Kid.
Machine Gun Kid will run around the north part of the room
firing
several shots downward. Hide behind a wall in the south part of
the
room and use REMOTE CONTROLLED MISSLES to kill him. Four REMOTE
CONTROLLED MISSLES should do the trick.
After the boss fight, use (F3) CARD 1 to enter the door in the
north
part of the room. In here you will find the ---PARACHUTE---.
From here you will need to head to the roof. But before you do
that,
now is a good time to restock your entire inventory. You should
know
where everything is in BUILDING ONE at this point in the game.
After
you restock your inventory, head to the elevator in the
northeast part
of the building. Take the elevator to the roof. When you exit
the
elevator, you will get a call (F4) from Big Boss. He will tell
you that
the wind barrier is extended on the roof and that you should
look for a
BOMB BLAST SUIT. If you listened to me earlier and got the BOMB
BLAST
SUIT from the basement, equip (F3) it for use on the roof. If
not, then
go back to the basement and get it. After you equipped the BOMB
BLAST
SUIT, head south. This screen will have two guards patrolling
the area.
Take them out of sneak past them and head south. The next
screen will
have one guard and a door in the southeast part of the area.
Take out
the guard and use (F3) CARD 3 to enter the room. Inside you
will find
REMOTE CONTROLLED MISSLES. If you don't have those completely
stocked
yet, do it now. Exit the room and head back to the elevator
area. From
here, head west. Here you will see three guards patrolling the
north
part of this area. Just stay south behind the walls and you
should be
safe. Head west again from here. This screen will have two
guards
patrolling around a bunch of crates. This screen is also easy
to get by
on as long as you stay south and head west. Here will be two
more
guards. Take them out or sneak past them and head south to the
next
screen. No guards here just enter the open door and grab the
AMMO.
Exit the room and head south via the right path. Use (F3) CARD
2 to
enter the room here and rescue the POW. Exit the room and head
back to
the screen with the two guards and a bunch of crates. Head
south from
here. On this screen you will see a swaying bridge. You have to
make it
across the bridge. If you fall off, you die. It's tricky at
first, but
you'll get the hang of it. Just try to head straight down very
slowly.
On the next screen you have to do the exact same thing, but the
bridge
is swaying the other direction. Head down slowly and as
straight as
possible. One across the bridge to the next screen, you will
see a
rocket man type guard. He'll probably spot you and more will
come.
Quickly move out of that screen to the west. Use (F2) the
REMOTE
CONTROLLED MISSLES to destroy the control panel to the electric
floor
in this area and use (F3) CARD 3 to enter the room. Stand by
the door
and take out all the rocket guards that enter the room until
they are
all dead the alarm stops. Grab the ---MINE DETECTOR--- on the
desk and
exit the room. Head back to the screen after the bridge and
head east.
Here you will face more rocket guard troubles. Just run past
them east
to the next screen. On this screen the third boss of the game,
the Hind
D, will confront you.
After the boss fight, head north. Then head west through the
passageway
here. You will now be on a balcony and the rest of the screen
will be
black. Equip (F3) the PARACHUTE and jump off the balcony to the
courtyard.
V. Desert Storm:
After beating the first Hind D in a Metal Gear game, it's time
to
continue on and fight two boss fights in a row.
When you land in the courtyard, you will land in the middle of
three
guard dogs. Take them out and head south. Here you will see two
trucks.
DON'T ENTER THE TRUCK ON THE LEFT! If you do you will have to
go all
the way up to the roof again and PARACHUTE all the way back
down. Equip
(F3) your MINE DETECTOR and make your may through the MINES and
enter
the truck on the right. In here you will find ---CARD 4---.
Exit the
truck and head back up. You can go into the room on this screen
using
(F3) CARD 4, but it's empty. From here head left. Take out the
two dogs
on this screen and use (F3) CARD 4 to enter the room on the far
left
side of the screen. Inside you will find a POW. He will tell
you that
Dr. Pettrovich was moved to +++BUILDING TWO+++ which is 10K
north of
here. Exit the room and use (F3) CARD 4 to exit the courtyard
via the
north door. Use (F3) CARD 4 on this screen to enter the door on
the
east side of the room. In this area will be six crates with
four guards
between them. Snake past the guards and use (F3) CARD 4 to exit
BUILDING ONE.
The Tank will fire machine gun rounds at you. Hide behind the
wall to
stay away from it. When the tank backs up, place a MINE down in
front
of the Tanks path. It will hit the MINE when it comes forward.
When
placing the MINE, watch out for the missiles that it shoots
out. If it
hits you, it will likely kill you. To avoid getting hit by the
missile,
just place the MINE to the side of the missile cannon. Try to
place two
or three MINES at a time to make the battle quicker. You might
need to
use a RATION or two if your hit by his machine gun.
Use (F3) CARD 4 to enter the next room. In this room you will
see five
laser walls. Equip (F3) your INFRARED GOGGLES to see the
lasers. The
lasers will flash in different directions. Get past them and
enter the
elevator take the elevator to the roof.
The second you enter the roof; you will be attacked by three
guards.
You can't stop the alarm so use (F3) CARD 2 to enter the room
on the
left. Inside you will find a POW. He will tell you that Dr.
Pettrovich
is being held in the basement. Exit the room and proceed east.
Here
you'll see four guards that will attack you. Sneak past them
and head
south. On this screen three guards will be patrolling the south
area.
Run past them and proceed south. The next area will hold
several of
those rocket guards. Use (F3) CARD 4 to enter the door in the
center of
the screen. Inside you will find a rocket guard, AMMO, and ---
CARD 5---
. Grab those, exit the room, and head east. More rocket guards
will
come. Run past them and use (F3) CARD 5 to enter the room. Once
again a
rocket guard will greet you. Run past him and use (F3) CARD 5
to enter
the elevator. Take the elevator down to the first floor
basement.
Once you exit the elevator you will see two guard dogs. Take
them out
and use (F3) CARD 5 to exit the room. In this area you will see
several
doors. Use (F3) CARD 5 to enter the door in the northwest
corner of the
room. In here you will find a POW. Rescue him and exit the
room. Use
(F3) CARD 5 to open the door on the far west wall. Before
entering the
door, equip (F3) your GAS MASK. After you have your GAS MASK
on, enter
the door. From here head north and follow the path until you
reach a
dead end. On the opposite side of the dead end wall, you should
see two

time you will need to run away from the fake Dr. Pettrovich and
to the
door. After the hole stops expanding, head through the open

around it and head into the open door. In here you can stock up
on
AMMO. After your finished stocking up, head back to the room
where you
found CARD 6. Use (F3) CARD 6 to exit that room via the south
door. On
this screen you will see a door on the west wall. Use (F3) CARD
6 to
enter it. In here you will find the sixth boss, the Fire
Trooper.
Exit Fire Trooper's room and head east. Don't forget to use
(F3) your
GAS MASK in the hall. Follow the path until you reach an open
door.
Enter the open door and you will be in a room with a rolling
pin, AMMO,
a RATION, and PLASTIC EXPLOSIVES. Grab those while avoiding the
rolling
pin and exit the room. Head back to Fire Trooper's room and
take the
elevator to the first floor. When you exit the elevator you
will notice
that you are in the laser wall area. Use (F3) the INFRARED
GOGGLES to
maneuver through the lasers and head right. On the next screen,
head
south. Enter the water in this area and go around the shallow
area to
the opposite side and head south. On this next screen, head
west. You
will now be on the opposite side of the drainage system from
earlier.
Kill the guard and use (F3) CARD 3 to open the door. Inside you
will
find the ---FLASHLIGHT---. Grab the FLASHLIGHT and head back to
the
drainage system. In this room you will see three guards. One
will be on
the other side of the drainage system, one will be walking in
front of
you, and the third will be near the door on the west wall. Kill
the
guard in front of you and the one near the door. Use (F3) CARD
2 to
enter the door. In this room you will find a guard patrolling
around
some crates. Kill him and grab the ---ANTENNA--- on the desk
and you
will get a call (F4) from Big Boss. He will tell you that the
transceiver was jamming, but now it's ok. Exit the room and
head east.
On this screen you will see two guards on your side of the
drainage
system and one on the other side of the drainage system. Take
out the
guards on your side of the drainage system and head up. Use
(F3) CARD 5
to enter the door on the west wall. Inside you will find a POW.
Rescue
him and he will tell you that the drainage system will lead you
to
+++BUILDING THREE+++. Exit the room and head back to the
elevator. Take
it to the second floor.
When you enter the second floor the guards will see you and
sound the
alarm. Run past them and head south. On this screen, head
right. You
will now be in a room with the seventh bosses of the game, the
Arnold's. It's not time to face them just yet. Run through the
crates
in the middle of the room and use (F3) CARD 5 to enter the door
on the
east wall. In here you will see three guards. Take out the one
closest
to you and use (F3) CARD 3 to enter the room on the northwest
part of
the screen. Inside will be a POW. Rescue him and he will tell
you that
you can contact resistance member Jennifer on frequency 120.48.
He says
that she is proud and might not answer. Exit the room and take
out the
guards. Now call (F4) Jennifer at 120.48. If you don't have a
four star
ranking, she won't answer you. If you rescued all the POWs that
I told
you to rescue up to this point, then you shouldn't have a
problem. She
will tell you that she can arrange a ===ROCKET LAUNCHER=== for
you to
pickup. End the transmission and use (F3) CARD 6 to enter the
door in
the northeast corner of the room. Inside you will find the
ROCKET
LAUNCHER. Take the ROCKET LAUNCHER and head back to the room
with the
Aronlds. When the Arnold in the north part of the room isn't
looking,
use (F3) CARD 1 to enter the door in the northwest part of the
room.
When you enter the door, guards will spot you. Run right down
the path
and use (F3) CARD 6 to enter the room. Take out all the guards
in the
room until the alarm stops and grab the ---ANTIDOTE--- on the
desk.
Exit the room and head back to the Arnold's room. When the
Arnold in
the south part of the room isn't looking, use (F3) CARD 1 to
enter the
door in the southeast part of the room. Take out the guard in
front of
you when you enter the room and head left. In this room you
will see
four guards patrolling and an open door in the northwest
section of the
room. Take out the four guards and enter the open door. In here
you
will find three boxes of AMMO and two guards. Kill the guards,
grab the
AMMO, and exit the room. Kill the guards again and head north.
On this
screen, you will see three guards patrolling the area. Take
them out
and head north again. Here you will need to use (F3) CARD 6 to
enter
the room. In here you will find the real Dr. Pettrovich. He
will tell
you that he is Dr. Pettrovich and that his daughter, Ellen, was
taken
hostage. He says that he won't discuss Metal Gear unless you
rescue his
daughter. Exit the room and head back to the room with the
Arnolds.
After the fight with the Arnolds, use (F3) CARD 2 to exit the
room via
the door in the northeast corner. Kill the guard in front of
you and
proceed east. This next room has three guards. Kill them and
call (F4)
Jennifer at 120.48. She will tell you that she opened the door.
The
door on the north wall will open. Enter the room and grab the -
--
COMPASS---. Exit the room and head back to the room where you
fought
the Arnolds. Use (F3) CARD 5 to enter the door in the southeast
corner
of the room. In this room you will see three guards. Kill them
and
enter the open door in the west part of the room. In here you
will find
a POW. Rescue him and he will tell you that you must have a
COMPASS to
get through the +++SCORPION DESERT+++. Exit the room and head
right. On
this screen there will be a sleeping guard between the four
crates.
Sneak past him and use (F3) CARD 5 to enter the door. In this
room you
will see a rolling pin. Get past it and enter the elevator.
Watch out
for the trap on the right side of the room. Take the elevator
to the
first floor basement.
Kill the dogs in this room and exit the room. Schneider will
contact
you here and warn you about the gas. Use (F3) and enter the
door on the
left. Equip (F3) your GAS MASK and follow the path until you
reach the
room with the trap. Use (F3) CARD 6 to enter the door on the
south
wall. This next area has LOTS of traps so be careful. When you
enter
the room, it will be dark. Diane will call (F4) you and tell
you to
watch out for pitfalls. End the transmission and equip (F3) the
FLASHLIGHT. This screen is clear of traps, head down via the
left path.
When you enter this screen, go left by the crates to avoid the
trap.
Then quickly run down to the next screen to avoid the second
trap. This
next screen is tricky. There is a trap in the top center of the
screen.
Slowly walk towards it to activate it and step back. Another
trap
connects to the southeast corner of that trap. Quickly move
that way
and avoid the trap. Head down to the next screen. This screen
isn't as
hard as the last. There are crates on all parts of this room
except for
the south part. The north crates have two big boxes in the
middle and
two small ones on the sides. Your first objective in this room
is to
get on the south side of the north crates. The northeast corner
of the
trap on the left connects with the southwest corner of the
crates the
same way the two traps did on the last screen. Do the same
thing as
last screen to get to the south side of that crate. Now
position
yourself directly in front of the small crate on the right side
and
head straight down to the next screen. This next screen, is a
little
tricky, but easily avoidable. Stay on the west side of the box
on the
right and head down and two steps to the right. Here you should
be just
to the right of the small box and half in front of the door.
The trap
on the right should have also activated, but it shouldn't have
touched
you. Proceed down and use (F3) CARD 1 to enter the door.
VIII. Ambushed:
Once on the first floor, you will see two guards firing at you
in a
room with crates. Kill them and exit the room. The next room is
empty
so exit the room via the door on the west wall. Once here, head
north.
Kill the guards here and enter the water. Swim to the other
side of the
shallow water and head east. On the next screen, head north
until you
can't go any further and get on the dry land. Head south. Take
out the
guard here and head west. There's another guard on this screen,
kill
him and head up. Use (F3) CARD 6 to enter the room on the right
wall.
In here you will find PLASTIC EXPLOSIVES. Stock up on those and
head
back to where you got on land. Head north from here. Use (F3)
CARD 7 to
exit BUILDING TWO. You will now be in the SCORPION DESERT. The
scorpions will run towards you when you enter the desert. If
they sting
you, your life will gradually drain. Use (F3) the ANTIDOTE to
cure
yourself of the poison. Equip (F3) yourself with the COMPASS
and head
north. You will have to go through several screens of
scorpions. Kill
them or run past them. Use (F3) a RATION if need. Keep going
until you
reach the trucks and the door. Several guards will come out of
the
trucks and ambush you. Then Big Boss will call (F4) you. He
will tell
you to enter the truck on the far right. Don't listen to him!
There are
only two trucks that you need to enter, the center truck on the
left
and the truck near the door on the right. Inside those trucks
you will
find AMMO. Only enter the truck on the right if you really need
AMMO as
four guards guard it. When your done there, use (F3) CARD 7 to
enter
BUILDING THREE.
You will be ambushed once again by four guards (it seems that
someone
from your side is leaking your location to the enemy... Big
Boss will
contact you and tell you to enter the door on the left. Use
(F3) CARD 1
to enter it to get the guards off your tail, but DON'T MOVE
when you
enter this room as it is a trap. Exit the room and use (F2) a
PLASTIC
EXPLOSIVE on the right side of the north wall. Hug the right
wall and
head north. This room has several traps on your way to the
elevator.
Stay on the right wall and head up until you reach the boxes.
Now head
left and up at the corner of the box. That will keep you out of
the way
of the first trap. Now head on the top of the first trap all
the way
until you pass the elevator. Now head north and right to enter
the
elevator. Now take the elevator down, down, down to the 100th
floor
basement and exit the elevator. This room will have two cameras
on the
north wall. They are easy to avoid if you hide behind the wall
in the
center of the room. Jennifer (F4) will call you and tell you
that there
is an ---OXYGEN TANK--- beyond the wall. Use (F2) a PLASTIC
EXPLOSIVE
to blow open the wall in front of the wall in the center of the
room.
Grab the OXYGEN TANK and head back up to the first floor and
back to
BUILDING TWO. Don't forget to use your (F3) COMPASS in the
SCORPION
DESERT.
When you're back at BUILDING TWO, head right. Now equip (F3)
your
OXYGEN TANK and swim north. Keep swimming north until you come
to
shallow water. Get out of the water; avoid the guards, and head
north
(head north directly in front of where you got out of the
water). On
this screen you will see an electrified floor. Use (F2) your
REMOTE-
CONTROLLED MISSLES to destroy the control panel next to the
door on the
left. Enter the door on the left using (F3) CARD 1. Inside you
will
find two boxes of AMMO. Schneider will call (F4) you. He will
tell you
that the person in charge of Outer Heaven is... The
transmission gets
cut off before he can tell you. Take the AMMO and exit the
room. Use
(F3) CARD 7 to enter the door on the right. In here you will
find the
eighth boss of the game, Coward Duck.
At the start of the fight, you will get a call (F4) from
Jennifer. She
will tell you that Coward Duck has ---CARD 8---. She will also
tell you
that her brother is among one of the captives so don't kill and
of the
POWs. After the transmission, head north along the left wall.
Now head
up hugging the boxes and rescue the POW on the left. Now
use(F2) you
HANDGUN to kill Coward Duck. 10 shots should do it with ease.
After the
fight, grab CARD 8 that Coward Duck leaves. Rescue the POW on
the right
and the POW in the center, who is Jennifer's brother. When you
rescue
him, he will tell you that he is Jennifer's brother. He will
tell you
that when escaping from Outer Heaven; use the ladder on the
left. Keep
that in mind and exit the room.
To defeat Metal Gear, you must use (F2) PLASTIC EXPLOSIVES and
the
order that Dr. Pettrovich gave you earlier. Put the PLASTIC
EXPLOSIVES
on his feet in the order R, R, L, R, L, L, R, L, L, R, R, L, R,
L, R,
R. The cameras move back and forth along the wall firing lasers
at you
when they see you. Use (F3) RATIONS to heal you when needed.
Big Boss will tell you that you were sent here to get false
information
on Metal Gear, but you accomplished too much. He will tell you
that you
have crushed his ambitions. He will then say that he will not
die alone
and that you are coming with him. Diane then calls (F4) you and
tell
you that she doesn't know how to defeat Big Boss. She then
attempts to
say she loves Solid Snake, but then says that it was nothing.
The fight
begins. You must use (F2) your ROCKET LAUNCHER to defeat Big
Boss. 5-10
hits with the ROCKET LAUNCHER should take care of the traitor.
Use the
crates for protection from his gunshots. The BODY ARMOR also
comes in
handy for that too. Use (F3) a RATION or two if needed.
